  • ive only recently started juggling about 5 days ago so im still kinda a noob and think everything as easy as it looks, so can someone tell me if body throws are as easy as they look, already kinda expecting what the answers gunna be?

  • Comment removed

  • @Freerunorpington Body throws are very hard!

  • @Galchenko are we talking hard as in when you first try and learn a new move or hard as in "holy fuck, bout 2 years of practice i should be able to catch one" hard?

  • do you happen to know how many hours Vova's done of juggling?

  • @katiedeeble

    "how many hours Vova's done of juggling?"

    If I understood you right, then I would say 1.5 hours x 365 days x 17 years = about 9300 hours. Well, so I would say Vova has done about 10000 hours of juggling. :-)

  • @Galchenko you understood my question completly! thank you!

  • thanks :)

  • how long it took to make Alberts Vova? thanks

  • @crisfasek

    I am not sure. I would say 1 year from the first tries to like 50 catches.

  • I notice that the throw from his left hand is diffrent.

  • what is the name of the body throw Vova do???

  • "what is the name of the body throw Vova do?"

    The name of the body throw is the body throw. Other names of the same move are crotches and alberts.

  • is an hour a day every day a year really that much? I practice about 2-3 hours a day, then again, maybe I'm just obsessed and have no life... oh well.

  • "is an hour a day every day a year really that much?"

    Vova practiced 2-3 hours a day in 2002-2003.

  • "what is that song called"

    "The Juggler" by Fox.

  • What age was Vova when he learned body throws? Was it hard for him?

  • "What age was Vova when he learned body throws?"

    He could do single throws at age of like 10. But he could do about 10 successive throws at about 14 I guess.

    "Was it hard for him?"

    Yes.

  • how much at day did he train body throws ?

  • "how much at day did he train body throws ?"

    When? When he started to work on body throws seriously, he worked on them for about 15 minutes a day (say, one day for an hour, the other three days 0) and got them solid in a couple of months. I don't remember it exactly. This is just how I feel it was.

  • holy shit he learns fast then? i dont get it, freddysheed worked 1 hour at day, in a year to get like 40 catches..

  • "holy shit he learns fast then?"

    Maybe I just don't remember it right.

    "freddysheed worked 1 hour at day, in a year to get like 40 catches.."

    Maybe Vova is not faster learner than Freddy. I can't believe Freddy worked on body throws 1 hour a day EVERY day during a year. It is very hard.

  • you mean, what age did vova practice 15 min every day? and got them solid in how many months ? just aproximantly.. Thanks vasili

  • "you mean, what age did vova practice 15 min every day?"

    I meant at age of 14.

    "and got them solid in how many months ?"

    I don't remember, but if you want my estimate, let's say in 3 months.

  • sorry for this late reaction, but the Dutch Juggling Championships were this weekend.

    thanks a lot for answering all my questions! i ask for the technique someone else :D no problem.

    and on GalchenkoDotCom, the beginning photo i got big on my wall :-)

    See you later on the WJF (over very long time :P)

  • "and on GalchenkoDotCom, the beginning photo i got big on my wall :-)"

    Nice to hear it. Thanks!

    "See you later on the WJF"

    I won't be there. :-)

  • "See you later on the WJF"

    I won't be there for a few years i think, maybe to look, or on the "sub" class. I dont know how you call it but the class that Bart is joining this December :-)

  • loveee the 2-stage 360 to anthonys (or are anthonys to the other side?? not good at names ;))

  • "loveee the 2-stage 360 to anthonys"

    Anthonys? This is something new. :-) Maybe alberts?

  • wow i was wrong at both of the tricks.. i think i was very dizzy or something ^.^ sorry, i mean 2-stage 720 and of course alberts, how could i be so stupid?!?!

    PS: I realy dont know if you want to reply me, but i did heard on circus that you are going to juggle on a competition with Bart Hoving, (i know him from Dutch Juggling Championships and other festivals) but,, is it true? and what are you going to do with him? ( i am just interested in Bart and U :P)

    hope you leave massage on my acc

  • "i did heard on circus that you are going to juggle on a competition with Bart Hoving..."

    Who is going to juggle on a competition? You mean Vova? As far as I know the only two competitions Vova will be taking part are the IJA competition in July and the WJF ones in December. Either Bart will be there or not he is definitely not Vova's rival. Or I didn't understand your question?

  • no sorry, you didn't understand me i think. i mean that i heard Bart was in LA last December, and heard also Bart was going to pass with Vova. (Sorry forgot Vova was not reading youtube comments.) but is Bart going to pass with Vova like i already sayd, but im just interested in good/the best jugglers so i want to know if it is true. Got it now?:P

    -And it are Alberts what Vova is doing right? I want to keep my list of trics up-

  • "Bart was in LA last December..."

    Yes, I know.

    "...forgot Vova was not reading youtube comments."

    Especially comments on my videos.

    "...but is Bart going to pass with Vova..."

    I have no idea. If Bart is going to pass with Vova, Vova usually agrees to pass with someone who wants it in gym. But if you mean them as a passing team on competitions, then I doubt they will make it.

    "Got it now?"

    No. You mean will they compete as a team?

    "And it are Alberts what Vova is doing right?"

    Yes.

  • "Bart was in LA last December"

    I didn't know for sure so thanks.

    "...but is Bart going to pass with Vova..."

    i dont have an idea too, thats what im asking, and yes, i mean them as a passing team on competitions, but are they going to?

    "Got it now?"

    Yes, i mean they will compete as a team yes.

    "And are it Alberts what Vova is doing right?"

    Thank you, i was not sure what side Alberts were to.

    hope you understand now :P

    (BTW: U are?? 1 time i heard Olga was repeating and 1 time Vova's Dad.

  • "i mean they will compete as a team..."

    I hear it the first time from you. :-) I don't think they will compete as a team.

    "BTW: U are?? 1 time i heard Olga was repeating and 1 time Vova's Dad."

    What? Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. What do you mean saying "U are?"? What were Olga and I repeating?

  • Just asked Vova about his possible competing in teams with Bart. Vova said this is not true and "No idea where he got that idea from."

  • haha, i got it from a friend of me, and that was my question, if they were going to compete as a team, haha, i will tell him its not true! i mean, Vova is not replying my comments right? (i mean from others too of course) But, who is replying me? (sorry i did sayd "repeating" in the back comment, my English is not perfect). so to who am i writhing this massage right now??

    (Thanks you did answer all my questions! manny other jugglers did not reply me on comments :D)

  • Oh! U know how it can be possible that i trow a kind of "97331" or "97441" or something but i realy can't make it "97531"? sorry if i'm annoying U, but i want to get better etc.;-)

  • "Vova is not replying my comments right?"

    Right. He doesn't reply even on his videos comments, let alone mine.

    "But, who is replying me?"

    His father.

    "so to who am i writhing this massage right now?"

    I guess to everybody who will read it. :-)

    "...but i want to get better etc.;-)"

    I am a wrong person to ask questions about juggling technique. I am not a professional juggler or something.

  • When I first tried this I was so afraid of hitting my head. Then I learned just to duck my head. LOL. *Did Vova ever hit his head?*

    This is such a helpful video, thank you Mr. Galchenko.

  • woah woah woah woah woah..hey TheHattedJuggler you cant get more complex then body throws..looks like i caught another person who doesnt know shht about juggling

  • woah woah woah woah.. take it easy man!!!!

  • Vova should make a juggling DVD but one with more complex trick's in, lots of people would buy

  • "Vova should make a juggling DVD but one with more complex trick's in..."

    Vova has a plan on making the DVD by summer.

  • I've seen it! Or at least part of it. AVOV and V08, it is so cool. I think everyone will like it. It is really funny and neato. :o)

  • "I've seen it!"

    Where have you seen it? Did Vova show it to you?

  • Yeah, on the computer at his house, with Mark.

  • rispy rile be bayy shpee shpayy!

  • "rispy rile be bayy shpee shpayy!"

    What?

  • that boy was born to do body throws

  • WRONG!!!

  • can u do that with tennis balls

  • Body throws with tennis balls? He never tried it. I think it would look ugly.

  • ive just seen it and it does look ugly id like to see how good he is with 3 balls

  • "id like to see how good he is with 3 balls"

    Vova is better in 3 clubs than in 3 balls.

  • i love his 360's. my throws are high and sorta spread apart. need help!!!

  • this song is :the juggler" by fox ? i cant find this song.

  • "this song is :the juggler" by fox ? i cant find this song."

    Well, I couldn't find it on the net as well. I couldn't even find lyrics for it. I got this song from the CD Vova and Olga were presented on the Vienna Juggling Festival in 2002.

  • It would be pretty cool to get hang of that song, yeah. I just ralised what the lyrics were. Does Vova know anything about it?

  • "Does Vova know anything about it?"

    About what?

  • The song.

  • He heard it.

  • lol, then not much :P So it originally came from... the people arranging the festival?

  • "So it originally came from... the people arranging the festival?"

    Yes, from the people arranging the Vienna Festival in 2002.

  • This video will help me when I learn body throws, especially with the slow motion. Thanks :)

    By the way, how much did Vova practice juggling when he was this age?

  • "how much did Vova practice juggling when he was this age?"

    About 2 hours a day.

  • What is the song?

  • "What is the song?"

    "The Juggler" by Fox.

  • Thank you.

  • Amazing! and he looks like hes having alot of fun!

  • Aren't these crotch throws?

  • Yes, another name for these throws - crotch throws.

  • DOPE!

  • amazing as usual.

  • Un-bel-iev-able!!!

  • The Music is Hella Funny! "His juggling... drives them wild."

  • One of the best films which I've ever seen :)

  • do you have videos of them juggling torches (on fire)? I would LOVE to see that!

  • No, I don't have any.

  • just wondering. i just love these videos. your kids are absolutely amazing!

  • :O

    i luv the switch over to the body throws ... makes me blink twice in amazement ;) transition is so smooth O.o

  • WOW!! i had no idea he had been able to do the split 720 in to body throws for so long!!! fantastic!!

  • Amazing.

    Good work, Vova! These moves must really take an incredible skill to execute...

    I gotta learn these tricks some time.

  • They do. I've been working on body throws for 18 months or so and I'm finally getting some good runs where I stop when I want to, not when I need to.

    Wes Peden learned these tricks in 8 months, I was a decent juggler when I started work on them so I'd say between 8 and 24 months to learn and an extra 3 months to year to get the 360s in.
